A 17-year-old boy was robbed and injured with a compressed-air pistol in Torre del Greco during the night between 1 and 2 November.
According to the initial reconstruction, which is still being verified, the teenager was approached in Via Duca Lecco De Guevara by a group of young people. One of them allegedly used the air pistol to wound him in the lip and then struck him on the back of the head with the butt of the weapon.
The attackers took a pair of sunglasses. The value of the glasses was estimated at around 300 euros.
The boy was taken to Maresca hospital in Torre del Greco and later discharged with a prognosis of 15 days.
Arrived by car, investigation ongoing
The attackers allegedly arrived by car, according to the reports of the incident. The Carabinieri of the radiomobile section of the Torre del Greco company intervened in Via Duca Lecco De Guevara and are working to reconstruct what happened.
Investigators are also looking for surveillance-camera images from the area that may help identify the vehicle and the people involved.

The identities of the attackers have not been released, and the sources acquired report no arrests. The exact number of people involved and the role of each person have not yet been clarified.
The sequence of events remains preliminary and subject to investigative checks. The available reports do not say whether the weapon was found or seized.
